One of 4 lovely campgrounds at Medicine Lake, Hogue is the largest and most spacious. Trailers and motorhomes up to 30 feet are welcome. Vault toilets will accommodate persons in wheelchairs with assistance. Beach access is located along the eastern edge of the lake at the Day Use, Picnic area.
From Tionesta, CA, take Forest Rt. 97 west 20 miles to an intersection. Turn right onto Forest Rt. 49 and go 1.5 miles to a Medicine Lake sign. Turn left and go 0.2 miles to a "T" intersection. Turn right and go 0.3 miles to campground on left.
While we love the lake, we had a campground neighbor who started blasting music around 4 pm and kept it going until 2 am. The last time we were there there was a person hollering drunkenly around midnight. This campground needs to be patrolled apparently because people are a-holes.
Very reasonable camping fees, nice tasting water, trash service. I heard the camp has been booked solid for months but fairly empty for our 4 days. Chose Medicine Lake to introduce grandkids to fish and fishing was really good. Kids and dogs enjoyed swimming while all enjoyed watching the ospreys fish.
It was a beautiful stay. The water was beautiful. Even watching the pollen river flow by was delightful. The rocks were a little troublesome at times, especially for a clumsy person. But I will definitely be there again.
Beautiful, camp sites well sized and spaced apart so even when it was full it didn't feel crowded. Beautiful lake, well kept grounds. A must visit.
Very nice campground and well maintained. Very friendly and helpful staff!
